More people write for the Associated Press than for any newspaper in the world, and writers--nearly two million of them--have bought more copies of The Associated Press Stylebook than of any other journalism reference. It provides facts and references for reporters, and defines usage, spelling, and grammar for editors.

With this edition, a new team of editors has undertaken a thorough overhaul of the entire book, giving it the first complete revision in over two decades. There are separate sections for journalists specializing in sports and business, and complete guidelines for how to write photo captions, file copy over the wire, proofread text, handle copy, and avoid libel.

Now more than ever, this is the essential reference for writers, researchers, and journalists.
